The letter:
Stavka December 15, 1916
My dear, darling Mama.
You will never see Joy again — he has been made into wonderful sausages for the guests!!!!!!!
Today was the same as always: I studied, walked and played.
Igor is leaving today!
Zhenya Makarov is in a sanatorium in Finland.
If it is alright with you, he can come to me for the CHRISTMAS PARTY.
The weather is plain: frost - 4°R. I am reading an interesting book about the Crusades in French, and in Russian I am learning "The Song of the Prophetic Oleg".
SOON,
COMING SOON and
SOO-oo-oo-ON!!!
I tenderly press all of you to my heart.
May the Lord protect you
MOTMA
+ + + + +!
Firmly.
Your
Alexei.
